Well known in the West as a painter and a lacquer artist, Shibata Zeshin enjoyed longevity in both his life and his career. At age eleven, he began an apprenticeship with the leading lacquer artist, Koma Kan'ya (Kansai II, 1767–1835); at sixteen, he began to study painting under Suzuki Narei (1795–1844) of the Shijō school. The paintings in this album reflect his early training and longtime involvement as a lacquer artist with a deep commitment to the realistic portrayal of nature that the Shijô school championed. These paintings also show Shibata Zeshin's skillful lacquer techniques.
